CAMPAIGN FOR
JEWELL BEGINS
The Trustees of William
Jewell College have
formally announced
"Leadership 2000: The Campaign
for William Jewell College,"' a
major capital campaign.
At a November 17 meeting, the
Board of Trustees launched the
campaign, which has a base goal
of $15,150,000 and additional chal-
lenge opportunities of $5,800,000.
The total challenge goal of
$20,950,000 targets trustees,
alumni, former students, faculty,
staff, corporations, foundations
and other friends of the college
for campaign commitments.
Campaign priorities include
construction of a Center for Basic
Sciences and Computer Technol-
ogy; endowments for scholarships,
faculty/staff salaries and develop-
ment and library acquisitions; and
additional ongoing programs. The
campaign is scheduled to run
through June of 1991.
"We must move ahead to
enhance our position of leadership
and our preparation of leaders
for the community and nation,"'
said William Jewell president
Dr. Gordon Kingsley. "The 'Leader-
ship 2000' campaign is designed
to give us the resources we
need to do that"
On the eve of the November 17
meeting, the trustees gathered for
a victory celebration to mark the
completion of their own fundrais-
ing campaign.
In addition to the trustees'
contributions, several major gifts
have been committed toward the
"Leadership 2000" campaign.
Among these is a $750,000 gift
from A. Major and Dorothy Hull to
endow the Major and Dorothy Hull
Chair of Leadership in Business
(see related story at right). Total
commitments to the "Leadership
2000" campaign stand at approxi-
mately $9.5 million.
Dorothy and Major Hull
HULLS ENDOW CHAIR IN
COMMUNICATION
A generous gift of $750,000
will fund the Major and
Dorothy Hull Chair in
Communication, to be staffed
beginning with the 1990-91
academic year.
"The Hull Chair in Communica-
tion represents another step for-
ward for William Jewell College in
joining the front ranks of America's
institutions of higher education,"'
said Dr. Gordon Kingsley, presi-
dent of William Jewell College.
"We are very grateful to Major and
Dorothy Hull for this meaningful
gift that will provide so many
benefits for the students of
William Jewell College"
The initial holder of the Hull
Chair is expected to be an experi-
enced leader in business, likely
from a major corporation in one of
the nation's financial centers or a
well-known and respected busi-
ness leader from the Kansas City
metropolitan area. The incumbent
of the Hull Chair will have a strong
interest in collegiate education and
will bring experience from the
business world which demon-
